Really, it's to focus on her Lemmy presence.

@MargotRobbie@lemmy.world would you like to comment on this decision?

Hey, I'm also old and get that!

[–] Nougat@kbin.social 4 points 10 months ago

Stay in your Lane.

[–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago

I think we're cool with that.

[–] MonsiuerPatEBrown@reddthat.com 97 points 10 months ago (2 children)

The press junket for Barbie seemed pretty nonstop for months.

Perhaps Ms Robbie is sick of us, too.

She's too busy shitposting on Lemmy, obviously.

There’s a Lemmy.world user by the name of MargotRobbie.

[–] ripcord@kbin.social 29 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Who cosplays as Margot Robbie too. It's not just a name (for more context)

[–] TheSlad@sh.itjust.works 14 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Honestly they had me kinda convinced...

[–] synae@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 10 months ago

I choose to believe

So does she need a middle aged man to make margaritas and gossip by the pool with her?

[–] MargotRobbie@lemmy.world 40 points 10 months ago (3 children)

That position has been filled. Sorry.

[–] GladiusB@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'm livid!

Is there a waiting list?

[–] XTornado@lemmy.ml 6 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Yeah I mean... At least to be the backup man.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Tell Hoshi we love him

[–] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Does she have anybody that explains things to her while they are having a bubble bath?

[–] Son_of_dad@lemmy.world 52 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I mean that's not a bad idea. There are movies l started avoiding cause I was sick of the actors in them being in everything. Got so sick of anything with Jennifer Lawrence or Bradley Cooper

Well good on Margot for taking some time off to focus on other things. Still being in the industry but avoiding the spotlight sounds like a good way to remain grounded.

[–] Bobmighty@lemmy.world 24 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Also because she's sick of the people I bet. I wouldn't blame her. We can be a bunch of fuckers as a species.

[–] Neil@lemmy.ml 13 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Plus, I bet she made enough from that movie to basically disappear for a year or two.

I mean when you've been played with by millions of girls for decades, you'd worry people were sick of you too.

Kudos for her for still looking young despite being a teenager since 1959.

[–] Underwaterbob@lemm.ee 15 points 9 months ago

I've got to say, I enjoyed Barbie more than I expected to. Maybe because I was jetlagged out of my brain on a 13-hour flight when I watched it, but I was probably disturbing my neighbors the amount I was giggling and trying not to burst out laughing. They did a great job of touching on serious issues in an informative and entertaining manner without being preachy or annoying, too. Fantastic movie!

[–] VerseAndVermin@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Samara Weaving liked that.

[–] DigitalTraveler42@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

Jaime King and Jaime Pressly be like "we still exist too"

[–] Wanderer@lemm.ee 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Is she keeps putting in performance like wolf of wallstreet I'm sure we won't get sick of her.

[–] remotedev@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 months ago

You mean nude, don't you

[–] harold999@lemm.ee 11 points 9 months ago

"How can you do this to us Margie ? We've already written Barbie 3 !" - Warner exec

[–] spacecowboy@sh.itjust.works 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

What about the other 3 (or 4?) Margot Robbies?

[–] DreadPirateShawn@lemmy.blahaj.zone 18 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think the plural is Margots Robbie.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 10 months ago

[–] theodewere@kbin.social 7 points 10 months ago (2 children)

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

[–] dellish@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago
